Aretha Franklin — The House That Jack Built Mono Version

This is the house that Jack built, y'all Remember this house! This was the land that he worked by hand It was the dream of an upright man There was a room that was filled with love It was a love that I was proud of This is the life of a life that he planned On the love, the same ole' love In the house that Jack built (the house that Jack built) Remember this house! There was the fence that held our love (yes it was) There was the gate that he walked out of This is the heart that is turned to stone (yes it is) This was the house, but it ain't no home This is the love that I once had In a dream that I thought was love In the house that Jack built (the house that Jack built) I'm gonn' remember this house! Oh-ohh wha-a-at's the use of crying? You know I brought it on myself There's no denying But it see-e-ee-ems awful funny That I didn't understand Until I lost my upright man, ya'll Up on the hill There's a big plan still In the house that Jack built (the house that Jack built) I'm gonn' remember this house (the house that Jack built) Listen! I got the house I got the car I got the rug And I got the rack But I ain't got Jack (Jack, Jack) And I want my Jack back! (I ain't got Jack, Jack) And I want my Jack back! I turned my back on Jack He said he wasn't coming back I turned my back on Jack He said he wasn't coming back Ohhh, Jack You oughta come on back Ohh Jack You oughta come on back To the one that you built I didn't understand I said, I want my upright man
